HISTORIC-CAMEO-NECKLACE.

Origin: Italy.
Date: Presumably ca. 1860.
Material: Clasp: 333/- yellow gold, tested, prong setting: gilt.
Total Weight: ca. 58.0 g.
Measurement: Length: 34.0 cm.
Gemstones: 16 gems, presumably lava stone Ø ca. 16.4 - 28.7 mm.
Description: Historic necklace with chased carved gems from multi-coloured lava stone. Framed in a prong setting this is a depiction of an allegory of autumn carved with great detail.
The hair of the women in profile is decorated with grapes and grape leaves, and falls onto her shoulders. With the head slightly tilted to the side the gems stand out due to their deep colour.
The period of 1860 was characterised by a rediscovery of the classic antiquity.
Etruscan goldsmiths technique, greek motives or roman material inspire the imagination of a time period in which the development of the Italian unification enhanced this interest further.
A set, consisting of brooch and bracelet, with very similar gems is listed in Bennett & Mascetti on page 144.
